That's crazy. They're just being idiotic horny teenagers, its not like he has naked five year olds on his phone or anything.
Whats even MORE messed up is the case of the teenage girl accused of child porn when she posted a naked picture of herself online.

Bit mental like. Presumably if hes 14, and he went off with a 14 , or even a 15 old girl, then by law hes a kiddy fiddler. In this case, someone sent him a video to his phone and he got stung for it.

Mental law to be honest. Its there for the right reasons, but has a few bugs, to say the least!

It's unusual, I think, because imagine if someone sent some heroin to the judges. The judge could then be also foudn to be in possession of illegal substances, just like this boy was even though he didn't actually do anything.

Then again it is Australia......it's not even the 20th century over there yet socially.

Does nobody remember the saga a few years ago with the picture of the girl in part of her school uniform that was being sent around schools? It was announced back then that possessing the picture would be an offence.

The girl, who had been invited to the event, was supplied with alcohol before the alleged offences. The 14-year-old who pleaded guilty yesterday was not at the party.

Video of the sex acts, which were recorded on a mobile phone, are believed to have been distributed among school mates.

The convicted boy received the footage on his phone, took it to a school computer and downloaded it on to a thumb drive, before putting it on his home laptop.

Teachers at the school became aware of the footage less than a week later and alerted police.

Det Sen. Sgt Lindsay Garrett, of the online child exploitation squad, said the young girl would have been humiliated.

Teenagers needed to know needed to know once sexual images were on the internet or on mobile phones, they were hard to stop, he said. "Once it's out there, it's out there for life."

Robert Fry, president of the WA Council of State School Organisations, said parents and teachers needed to be aware that technology had advanced and allowed children to film explicit activities.

He said the case should serve as a strong warning to teenagers.

Education Department director-general Sharyn O'Neill said: "While I am not prepared to make any comment about the case, the filming and distributing of images designed to demean and humiliate anyone is disgraceful."

WA Secondary School Executives Association president Rob Nairn said principals were aware that sexting was an emerging issue in schools. It had been working with the Education Department to develop new policy guidelines to help schools prevent and deal with the problem.
The boy's case was referred to a Juvenile Justice Team.

It's not like he was just sent the clip. He also put it on three different drives.
Then again, he's only 14, and most 14 year olds are idiots.

It doesn't say anything about the sentence, but it can't have been more than a slap on the wrist.

On the other hand, I completely agree with the dudes who had sex with her being charged.

The person who sent the clip around should be sent to the island of gay rapists.
